How it works

01

Paste your post

Drop your draft into the text box. The 9 platform cards update live as you type.

02

Watch the limits

Green = within limit, yellow = close to the cap, red = over. Instagram shows you what gets truncated before the "...more" cutoff.

03

Copy and ship

Hit "Copy summary" to grab the per-platform counts in one paste — or use OneUp to publish once across all 9.

From OneUp Today

Stop counting. Just publish.

OneUp formats your post for all 9 platforms automatically — character limits, hashtag rules, link previews, image dimensions. Write once, every platform native.

FAQ

Is this really free?

Yes. The first 3 uses are anonymous; after that, sign up free with Google to keep using it. No credit card.

Does X really have different limits per tier?

Yes. Free is 280 characters. Premium ("Blue") raises it to 4,000. Premium+ goes to 25,000. Toggle the tier above the platform grid to see counts for each.

How is Instagram truncation calculated?

Instagram displays roughly the first 125 characters in the feed before the "...more" link. The full caption can be 2,200 characters. We highlight when you cross the visible threshold.

Why don't links show as 23 characters on X?

X's t.co shortener uses 23 characters per link in posts, but only when the post is sent. The counter shows raw character count so you can see your literal text length.
